- Description
- NOTE: THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTATIONS. The U.S. Department of Commerce/NOAA intends to solicit and negotiate with only one responsible source under authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b), Only one responsible source, Advanced Telemetry Systems, Inc. (ATS), possesses the 120 VHF radio transmitters to be used with a series of NOAA owned and operated UHF receiver/data logger systems used by the U.S. Antarctic Marine Living Resources Program at a remote field camp in Antarctica. The requested 120 VHF transmitters are speciically designed and manufactured by ATS for use on diving animals (penguins and seals). They can withstand pressures and temperatures exceeding those, which are experienced by the species they will be used on. Their antennae are also specially designed to withstand the rigors of attachment on these seals and penguins, which have a tendency to bite, bend and break. Lastly, they are designed to work with expensive VHF receiver/data logging systems already owned and operated by NOAA. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations, however, the Government will consider responses received by 06/26/2013 by 10:00 a.m. pacific Standard Time. A determination by the Government to not compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
